Price: £18.00

The previous two drawing novellas took Ingo Giezendanner to far away places by train and ship. This time he paces his immediate surroundings in the city he grew up in. The dreamlike stroll through Zurich follows observations of construction and destruction and traces the reactions and remnants of its inhabitants. Accompanied by drizzle and rain this ordinary walk provokes a sort of cleansing in the city with its two rivers, which is famous not only for its high living standard but also for its cleanliness.

The drawings were made with felt pen in small notebooks. The hours-long work on the drawings, which are all made right on the spot, displaces Giezendanner into meditation and lets him perceive the urban space in different ways.

The Molem Collective

Published by: Art Paper Editions

31.3 x 31.2 cm

Edition of 300

2013

Price: £13.00

The Molem Collective gathers a collection of hip hop sneakers of the young Morocco-born Zakaria Haddou aka Zak from Molem. He was commissioned by the Croatian-Belgian artist Hana Miletić to portray his collection of 24 pairs of sneakers, bought during the last eighteen months. The succession of different sneakers can be regarded as a short historiography of the hip hop subculture. The Molem Collective is released as a limited edition LP record. The yellow record sleeve and the blue vinyl label refer to the flag colours of Sint-Jans-Molenbeek, better known as ‘Molem’ in slang, the multi-ethnic neighbourhood the young man inhabits.

First Edition

2013

Price: £10.00

Allison Schulnik choreographs her subjects in compositions that embody a spirit of the macabre, a Shakespearian comedy/tragedy of love, death and farce. The subjects often stare back at the audience and study them as they are in turn studied, aware of their ancestors from the Grand Theme works of the past, the genre paintings that inform them. Although a haunting sense of foreboding, discomfort and unease is palpable, a sense of understanding and compassion for her cast of characters is still evident in the heavy impasto paintings. Her sculptural use of oil paint references her clay-animation background, as a motion-like sensibility affords her paintings unparalleled depth and energy.

Felix Werbowy
Please, Again

Published by: NoPlace

96 pages

11.4 x 18.5 cm

Edition of 500

2013

Price: £13.00

Young Werbowy is a photographer and he has one eye of hypersensitivity and one eye that is just closed. Growing up in the 21st century he has no nostalgic adhesiveness towards the analogue, he chooses pixels and digital potential for his poetic pictures of somethings and nothings. He might be the new Tillmans but with less assholes (literally) and more color. And what colors! Why bother go outside to catch a lovely sun setting behind the city, when you can have it through soiled, tainted windows? He is using the digital photomedia unlike much seen before, like a polaroid without the nostalgia filter, he uses the frost from the New York city air to create a welcome blur effect that make them look like paintings. This mixed with his ignorance of the pixel count of his random digital cameras, and crap lenses, makes the lines, perspectives and colors melt together into something very rare in this age of digital perfectionism, or “let’s make this picture look coincidental even though we have the skills and equipment to avoid it” tendency.. Photographs where the whole motive is vivid and clear from pixel one to two millions, or three or ten. It doesn’t matter His pictures just are, and for once, it is enough. Or more than enough. Trends don’t matter here, or if they do they are coincidental. And history is irrelevant. He just happens to be our times Eggelston. Just like Eggleston just happened to be his times Eggleston, Werbowy just happens to be his times Werbowy. The Rimbaud of photography. Enough legacy at the age of 23. Just perfect.

Price: £11.00

Dan Colen (B. 1979, Leonia, NJ) is a contemporary American artist who’s aesthetic embodies the youth culture that he himself inhabits. His work takes on a variety of forms: graffiti sculptures appropriating low-culture ephemera, scrawled text paintings, trompe-l’oeil imagery, and installations involving photographs of his friends, many of them artists in their own right. This generous collaborative spirit is a hallmark of much of Colen’s work. Drawing from elements such as mass media, childhood games, comic strips, and even candy wrappers, Colen’s work combines this oft-mined genre with an exuberant appreciation for the undervalued and overlooked.
